Missing detail in the text:
"<span>A small glass bead has been charged to + 25 nC "
Solution
The force exerted on a charge q by an electric field E is given by
</span>

<span>Considering the charge on the bead as a single point charge, the electric field generated by it is
</span>

with

,

is the charge on the bead. We want to calculate the field at

:

The proton has a charge of

, therefore the force exerted on it is

And finally, we can use Newton's second law to calculate the acceleration of the proton. Given the proton mass,

, we have


The charge on the bead is positive, and the proton charge is positive as well, therefore the proton is pushed away from the bead, so:
B. number of oscillations in a given period of time.
I think the answer is .579 m
Hi there,
Unlike velocity,speed is scalar,which means it is described by MAGNITUDE only.
